Friday Night Excitement Continues Amidst air hanging heavy with the sound of teeth clenching in light ten- sion, hoards of amateur gamblers try their luck at ring tosses, Softball throws, and bingo games. The stakes are small, but so are the winnings. It ' s all in a Friday night in March at Northrop. The Junior Class Carnival has be- come a tradition, anxiously expected every year as a night of inexpensive fun. It earns money for the junior class and for the many clubs that operate booths. This year ' s carnival entertained over 600 people. As quoted in What ' s Bruin, Mrs. Stephanie Bourne, junior class sponsor, commented, Since the first carnival, many people have come and enjoyed themselves. That is a good thing to see. Most of the usual games and booths were back. The ever popular cake walk and sucker tree offered eatable prizes, while tiddly winks and the Softball throw offered teddy bears and spirit items. The jail became more realistic this year, as it was covered with orange paper, only having a small barred window for the innocent criminal to look out. Junior Lisa Bloom said, There were so many different age groups, from lit- tle kids of five or six to parents. Also, it ran very smoothly. You didn ' t have to wait long. According to Mrs. Bourne, the carnival did run smoothly, grossing near $200. Eighty percent went to the clubs and twenty percent went to the junior class for the junior senior Prom. Both a money-maker and a source of inexpensive fun, the carnival will hope- fully continue. The games and booths may change, but the excitement and fun will stay the same, written by Kim Simpson.
